Published in 2020 at "PROTEOMICS"

DOI: 10.1002/pmic.202000014

Abstract: Mussel byssus represents a fascinating class of biological materials with a unique capacity to adhere onto virtually any solid surface. Proteins expressed in byssus, the byssal‐producing organ (foot) as well as mantle tissue from Mytilus… read more here.

Published in 2019 at "Environmental pollution"

DOI: 10.1016/j.envpol.2019.05.093

Abstract: Microplastics have been found to adhere to the surface of specific tissues or organs other than being ingested by the organisms. To further test the hypothesis that microplastics might get into specific body parts of… read more here.

Published in 2020 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-020-79253-7

Abstract: Byssus is a thread-like seafood waste that has a natural high efficiency in anchoring many metal ions thanks to its richness of diverse functional groups. It also has structural stability in extreme chemical, physical and… read more here.

Published in 2021 at "Scientific Reports"

DOI: 10.1038/s41598-021-84948-6

Abstract: Mussels, which occupy important positions in marine ecosystems, attach tightly to underwater substrates using a proteinaceous holdfast known as the byssus, which is tough, durable, and resistant to enzymatic degradation. Although various byssal proteins have… read more here.
